In The Wrong Shop.

A man about twenty-five years OF
age, wearing pair of cowhide boots
and a suit of gray jeans, entered an
undertaker's establishment in Chica-
go, recently and began to in

such places. He stood looking as
if he wanted something he could not
find. AT length he was greeted by
the proprietor with
''Good morning, sir"

Wise Words

Suggestion is better than com

Growing strength increases bray

The successful instructor is many

Instinct is better than misguided
reason.
Exactness in little duties is a Won
derful source Of cheerfulness.
Never Judge by appearances. A

The "thank you's" and the .'if YOU

No Need of Catching Colds.

Speaking Of colds, have a theory
that no one need ever have one un-
less he chooses in other words, that
it is quite possible to so train the
skin, that wonderful organ which is
generally looked upon as the paper
wrapper to our human bundle, as to
render it non-susceptible to sudden
changes Of temperature or atmospher-
ic moisture, whence colds come.
And this is exactly the season to
commence such a system of pellar
education, as it has proved effective
in many instances within my own
knowledge, and as it is within reach
Of every one to try, / write it here.
The theory is that no skin that has
been exposed freely for half an hour
at the beginning Of the day, will note
small changes, or be effected thereby.
A cold is simply a nervous shock,
BY the myriads Of minute
nerve terminals that bristle over the
surface Of the human body, transmit
ted to the center and so back again
TO mucous membrane, the peculiar
seat Of this special irritation. Let
rs then 50 train these sensitive fbres
